In the Name of Lava! is a Simpsons Comics story that appears in Simpsons Comics #152.

In a hunt for Bigfoot after discovering a bad smell in the area, Bart climbs to the top of Mt. Springfield with Milhouse. They find the source of the smell to be Cletus, who is burning tires. Bart tells Milhouse that he has come up with a good prank, and goes home to trick Homer. He tells him to look towards the mountain and tells him that the smoke from the tire fire is from a volcano that has become active. Homer becomes afraid and tells to the family that they must flee. Homer drives off with full throttle after he starts the car with the family, but gets stopped by Clancy Wiggum. He says he accelerates because he wants to avoid the volcano and shows Clancy the smoke from Mt. Springfield. Clancy begins to spread the word via his police radio, and the TV broadcasts were interrupted, with an alert revealing that the volcano is active and invites viewers to evacuate the city.
